It will be adding flights and/or increasing the frequency to or from Fort Lauderdale, Key West, Orlando, Fort Myers, Tampa, Pensacola, and Tallahassee.

For Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers, Silver Airways will be adding an additional nonstop flight between Orlando and resuming its second seasonal flight to and from Key West.
